Most of the pictures posted are for the baby raptor which isn’t going to be offered in the US.

My buddy's Ranger's windshield would come off.

This dude had a date one night and before school let out we snuck out and stole the windshield.

He went and picked this chick up with no windshield and got pulled over on the way to whatever the shite they were doing.


frick I miss high school.

From looking online, it looks like the front bucket seats are the same size as those in the Explorer. Those seats are small and uncomfortable for me at 6’2” because the bottom of the seat does not provide enough leg support. This will rule out a ranger for me and I’ll look for another F150 when mine wears out (2010 with 160k)

He got pulled over for no windshield? Yet, Jeeps can drive without one?

I agree. I’d take the grill out.

I had a Ranger the first year they came out, got a 4x4 in 1987, and bought a 4x4 crewcab in 1997. The most expensive ranger I bought was my 1997 one for $17,995 new and it was a 4x4 with upgraded dealer package. Quality wise I put over 300,000 miles on each vehicle which very few issues.

As far as paying $50k for one nope just way too many options in that price range.

And if you go over 120 mph, you get better gas mileage

So they basically took a new Tacoma and added Ford badges and a grille. I'd rather have the Tacoma (I already have one ) which is already KNOWN to last and has a 6 cylinder at least.

I thought I read something somewhere that said you have to pull a wheel off to change the oil.

He did.

He didn't get a ticket, though.

If that's true that's retarded and would take it out of contention for me in itself, since I change my own oil. Unfortunately that's what car manufacturers are doing these days in order to make everything as aerodynamic and compact as possible, which sucks. Plastic shrouds EVERYWHERE.

The worst thing about the Tacoma is not being able to add ATF without taking a plug out of the top of the transmission. Doesn't have an ATF dipstick or anything either.

They're all meant to force you into taking it to the dealer for services.
